The Bobble

I almost just gave up and I didn’t. The part of the youtube video that was extremely deterring was “If you are getting loops on the back side of your stitches this means you have incorrectly threaded the top of the machine.”

Like, I get how that could feel helpful to the creator but for me… for 20 mins… it felt like my

Fear.

Worry.

Inadequacy.

The nuance of the word. Inadequacy. I think this feeling is something I have been struggling with frequently as of late. Whether this intrusive thought is woven into thoughts of my career path, my body, or something as simple as threading a sewing machine (mind you, pre the sewing part).

But I did it. I fucking did it. I persevered and learned it.

I can do challenging things. I can. I can learn new things. I can.

If I can conquer the bobble… I can do some other shit too.
